The first term of a sequence is -12. The recursive formula for the sequence is an = an-1 + 9. What are the next 3 terms in the sequence?

Answers

Answer 1
The next three terms are: -3, 6, and 15

To get each new term, we simply add 9 to the last term. So we add 9 to -12 to get -3. Then we add 9 to -3 to get 6. Finally we add 9 to 6 to get 15

In other words,
first term = -12
second term = first term+9 = -12+9 = -3
third term = second term + 9 = -3+9 = 6
fourth term = third term + 9 = 6+9 = 15

This process repeats forever though we only need three terms in this case.

So that's why the answer is the three values -3, 6 and 15

In the triangle below, which is equivalent to sinA?

Answers

1. By definition, you have:

 Sin(α)=Opposite/Hypotenuse

 2. Then, SinA is:

 SinA=BC/AC

 A is the angle in the vertice "A".
 BC is the opposite leg to the the angle A.
 AC is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

 3. By definition, you have:

 Cosα=Adjacent/Hypotenuse

 4. Then, CosC is:

 CosC=BC/AC

 C is the angle at the vertice "C".
 BC is the adjacent leg to the angle C.
 AC is the hypotenuse.

 5. Therefore, the answer is the last option:

 The equivalent to SinA is CosC
we have that

sin A=BC/AC

what does a^2+b^2=C^2 mean

Answers

A squared plus B squared equals c squared refers to a kind of math formula where you take 2 given points on a shape and try to find the third point.

The equation a² + b² = c² represents the Pythagorean theorem, which describes the relationship between the sides of a right triangle. It states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. For example, in a triangle with legs of 3 and 4 units, the hypotenuse would be 5 units.

The equation a² + b² = c² represents the Pythagorean theorem in mathematics. This theorem is used to describe the relationship between the lengths of the sides of a right triangle.

Pythagorean Theorem

In a right triangle:

a and b are the lengths of the legs (the two sides that form the right angle).

c is the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle).

The theorem states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse (c) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides:

a² + b² = c²

This can also be expressed as c = √(a² + b²).

For example, if one leg of the triangle is 3 units and the other leg is 4 units, you can find the hypotenuse as follows:

3² + 4² = c²9 + 16 = 25c = √25 = 5

In this fulcrum, the weights are perfectly balanced. How far must the fulcrum be located from the 60 pound weight if the bar is 24 feet long?

A) 9
B) 15
C) 12

Answers

Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In this fulcrum, the weights are perfectly balanced.

To Find: How far must the fulcrum be located from the 60 pound weight if the bar is 24 feet long?

Solution:

To make the weights perfectly balanced torque must be equal

[tex]Torque = Force \times d[/tex]

Where [tex]Force = Mass \times Acceleration[/tex]

Let a be the acceleration

d= Distance between the pivot and the acting point.

Let x be the distance from 60 pound weight where fulcrum is located

Since we are given that Length of bar = 24 feet.

So,Distance of fulcrum from 100 pound weight = 24-x

Now torque for 60 pound weight :

[tex]Torque = 60a \times x[/tex]

Now torque for 100 pound weight.

[tex]Torque =100a \times (24-x)[/tex]

Now to maintain the equilibrium i.e. To make the weights perfectly balanced

[tex]60a \times x =100a \times (24-x)[/tex]

[tex]60x = 2400-100x[/tex]

[tex]160x = 2400[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{2400}{160}[/tex]

[tex]x = 15[/tex]

Hence The fulcrum must be located 15 feet from the 60 pound weight if the bar is 24 feet long.

The value of a textbook is $120 and decreases at a rate of 12% per year. Write a function to model the situation and then find the value of the textbook after 9 years.

Answers

120(0.12) = $14.40

After the first deduction, the book now costs $105.60.

It decreases $14.40 per year.

Do this for 8 more years.

This should give you what you need to form the needed function modeling the situation.

To model the depreciation of a textbook initially worth $120 with a 12% annual decrease, use the function V(t) = 120 x (1 - 0.12)^t. After 9 years, the textbook's value will be approximately $38.24.

The student asks for a function to model the depreciation of a textbook and the value of the textbook after 9 years. The textbook costs $120 initially and depreciates at 12% annually. To model this, we can use an exponential decay function, which is generally of the form V(t) = V_0  imes (1 - r)^t, where V(t) is the value after time t, V_0 is the initial value, r is the rate of decay, and t is time in years.

Plugging in the given values:

V_0 = $120

r = 0.12 (12% as a decimal)

t = 9 years

The function becomes V(t) = 120  imes (1 - 0.12)^t. Now, we find the value of the textbook after 9 years by substituting t with 9:

V(9) = 120 x (1 - 0.12)⁹

Calculate:

V(9) = 120 x (1 - 0.12)⁹
V(9) = 120 x 0.88^9
V(9) =120 x 0.318630...\approx $38.24

Thus, the value of the textbook after 9 years will be approximately $38.24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the horizontal distance from left end of cable (m)

y----> the height above roadway (m)

we know that

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

In this problem

The y-intercept is the height above roadway (m) when the distance from end of cable is equal to zero

You can upgrade lighting at your factory to LED bulbs that cost $6.95 each and last an average of 5 years. It costs $3 in labor to change a bulb. Over a 10-year period, about how much will it cost per year to install LED bulbs in 100 lamps and change the bulbs when they burn out?


Answers

Each bulb and the labor to install it costs
.. $6.95 +$3 = $9.95

100 bulbs and 10 years totals (100*10) = 1000 bulb·years. For the price of $9.95, you purchase 5 bulb·years, so the total cost for 1000 bulb·years is
.. (1000 b·y)*($9.95/(5 b·y)) = $1990

Over a 10-year period, installation and replacement of 200 bulbs in 100 lamps will cost $1990. Then the per-year cost is ...
.. $1990/(10 yr) = $199/yr

Answer: $200.00

Step-by-step explanation:

$6.95+ $3.00= $19.90

$19.90 * 100= $1,990

$1,990 / $9.95 = $200.00

take the orginal cost 6.95 plus the $3 labor which equals 19.90 then you multiply by the number of bulbs 100 which equals 1990 then divide 1990 by the cost of bulbs 9.95 which equals 200!

A city was founded at the beginning of 1990 with a population of 55,000, and since then, the growth in its population has been exponential, increasing at x percent per year. If the city's population at the beginning of 2000 was 108,193, at what percent per year to the nearest percent is the city's population increasing?

Answers

You can solve this analytically to get
.. 55000*(1 +x/100)^10 = 108193
.. (1 +x/100)^10 = 108193/55000
.. 1 +x/100 = (108193/55000)^(1/10)
.. x = 100*((108193/55000)^(1/10) -1) ≈ 7.00

but I find it just as fast to have a graphing calculator do it.

The city's population is increasing 7% per year.

Answers

Cate has 10 dolls and since Shelayna has 3 times the number of dolls
Therefore to find how many dolls Shelayna has we have to first multiply 10 * 3
Thats 30 dolls
Then we have to find how much more Shelayna has compared to Cate, for this we need to find the difference between the number of dolls they both have. 
To find differences we have to subtract the number of dolls Cate has from the number of dolls Shelayna has, thats 30 - 10 = 20
Therefore the operations are multiplication and subtraction in order

Answer:

multiplication and subtraction in order

Step-by-step explanation:

Select the scenarios that correctly represent the given graph.

Answers

Answers: The correct choices are the first two choice.

The graph shown is an exponential graph. From the first point to the second, it increase from 100 to 150. This is a 50% increase. This pattern continues throughout the chart.  

The first two choices give an increase of 50%. Or 1.5 times larger.

Answer:

The correct options are 1 and 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph it is clear that it is a graph of an exponential function and the graph passes through the points (0,100) and (1,150).

The general form of an exponential function is

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]            .... (1)

Where, a is the initial value and b is growth rate.

The initial value is 100 because the y-intercept of the graph is 100.

The graph passes through (1,150). Put y=150, a=100 and x=1 in the above formula to find the value of b.

[tex]150=100b^1[/tex]

Divide both the sides by 100.

[tex]1.5=b[/tex]

The value of b is 1.5.

Substitute a=100 and b=1.5 in equation (1).

[tex]y=100(1.5)^x[/tex]

It means the value is 1.5 times larger in every unit of time.

It can be written as

[tex]y=100(1+0.5)^x[/tex]

It means the initial value increased by 50% per unit of time.

So, the required scenarios are

1. The amount of money in a bank account increased by 505 per year.

2. The amount of a substance is one and a half times larger after every minute.

Therefore the correct options are 1 and 2.
